    I did 120 miles yesterday. Felt good to get out on two wheels again for more than a trip down the block.

    Did about 100 yesterday and today! Makes the morning commute more tolerable. Cagers still don't seem to realize that it's bike season again. They'll never understand!

    04/15/03 High Temp of 82... How far?

    Forgot to post the best part of yesterdays ride... although I would really enjoy living a little farther East, yesterday, half of my ride was free of other traffic as well as the law. There are a few twisty spots on rt 2 in NY that are impossible to patrol, and thus provide the opportunity to do whatever your skill level allows... it is this that makes me want to stay here... I am in the process of closing on a house right now in Southern VT, so this shall only get better....

    Suppoz- I wouldn't leave either. Commaraderie is nice but clear twisties are better.

    To my crew last night (Rob/Jeff/Scott/Mark): Did anyone check mileage out? I am estimating 100-120. If you guys noticed, I had to go to reserve right before I exited out. I was about 90% full at the start of the ride so I figure about 120-130 miles to a tank running the FCR's pretty hard. Not bad I guess.

    Ya rye, i hear ya...

    hell though.. when I close on this house you are all still welcome to crash here during a Berkshire Trip... of course I'll have to do a criminal background check j/k... except for Beet.. more psychological... just kidding man, your posts are awesome... sher, i don't know what they mean, but it's a good morning challange to try to figure them out...

    This place also has a 3.5 bay garage, so a bike maint. day seems quite posible as well.. my home is your home..

    Laters,

    J

    dunno for sure where you started from, Ryan, but I had about 8 mi. on a new tank when I left Centennial Park... and about 88 when I got home to Salem.

    I concur..... I was going to say about 90 miles from Salem and back. And Ryan I'm glad to hear it was only a gas issue. I saw you drop back so I slowed up for a bit and was going to pull over, but you were back on the throttle in no time.

    many phone calls complaining of motorcycles racing through traffic at a high rate of speed and passing on the double yellow.
